Overview
Sign of the Beast Burlesque in Portland Oregon is excited to announce the launch of our Fundraising Campaign for the first ever METALESQUE FEST 2016 via Indiegogo! We are the first ever burlesque festival celebrating performance to heavy metal music!

"Girls don't like metal." -some idiot

NOT TRUE.

Sign of the Beast Burlesque is perhaps the most well known and unique burlesque troupe in Portland Oregon. We've been producing and performing in full length cabaret style shows featuring incredible performers and heavy metal music since 2010, when troupe was formed by local legend "Miss Metal Portland" Vera Mysteria. Since then, co-producers Rocket and Hai Fleisch have taken the troupe to new heights, making the show more epic every year.  So far we've had some incredible performances:  babes bathing in giant goblets of blood, high flying aerial artist witches, murderous mermaids, and a tiny naked woman riding a giant stuffed tiger, just to name a few. 

In 2016, we wanted to share our love of metal and performance art with a larger audience and a more diverse group of performers. We cranked up the volume on our favorite Slayer record, thought long and hard about how we could achieve this goal.....and the idea for the first ever Metalesque Fest was born! The fest incorporates three days of badass performances, live metal music from local bands, an air guitar contest, workshops, and networking events.

If you are a believer in the power of burlesque has to change lives and you love metal music, this fest is for you! It's rare to see women "take the lead" in the metal music scene, and here is a group of women so in love with the music and it's power that they have produced an entire show (for six years now) dedicated to it! So many women absolutely love metal, and our troupe and guest performers from around the country are ready to rock out! Thank you for helping us make our goal a reality!

How can you help?

...and what do you get?

We put our nose to the rhinestone and had an amazing fundraising show earlier in 2016. Although it helped us raise a good deal of money, we are still in need of more funds to nurture this show into reaching it's full potential. We must pay our performers, musicians, and staff for the countless hours of work, love and practice they have put in to make this fest a reality. In addition, we have venue fees and transportation costs. This is where you come in! Your contributions help us to facilitate the behind the scenes costs associated with Metalesque Fest.

In return, we have some amazing Sign of the Beast Burlesque merch and VIP perks we'd like to offer you to say THANK YOU!
